But this time, the unlucky one was not Cheng Ketian, but the arrogant Qi Wenhan. No wonder he was so angry just now. He couldn't help but laugh. "Hahahaha, good, Qi Wenhan has his day. Wei Zhaotong is a wonderful person!"
In front of Qi Wenhan, Cheng Ketian had never been able to gain any advantage. He was not Qi Wenhan's opponent. No matter how arrogant and conceited he was, he had no choice but to admit this. But looking at it this way, everything had its vanquisher. In front of that old fox Wei Zhaotong, the arrogant Qi Wenhan was also helpless.
"Let's go to the Hong Chamber of Commerce." Cheng Ketian decided immediately.
"Yes, yes. But Young Master Cheng, why are we going to the Hong Chamber of Commerce? Do we need to bring people?" Chen Zitiao quickly replied.
"Bring people? Bring what people? We are not going to stand up for Qi Wenhan. Why would we bring people to the Hong Chamber of Commerce? "Cheng Ketian curled his lips.
"Then we are …" Chen Zitiao couldn't keep up with Cheng Ketian's thoughts.
"You're so stupid!" Cheng Ketian kicked Chen Zitiao's face in front of everyone. He then pretended to be profound and said, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend. This move of mine is called killing with a borrowed knife."
"Yes, yes, Young Master Cheng is brilliant!" Chen Zitiao quickly smiled apologetically and climbed up from the ground. But in his heart, he was disdainful. You want to deal with an old fox like Wei Zhaotong with your little IQ? You won't even know if you get betrayed. You'll probably be happy to help others earn money. Killing with a borrowed knife?
Without further ado, Cheng Ketian brought Chen Zitiao to the Hong Chamber of Commerce and requested to see Wei Zhaotong. After all, he was the young master of the Poison Eye Mercenary Group and was the most troublesome local bully in the area. The shop assistant did not dare to slight him and respectfully invited the two of them to the guest hall.
"Oh. Young Master Cheng, what a rare guest! "After a while, Wei Zhaotong came out with a smile.
"Haha. Shopkeeper Wei, long time no see. How have you been? "Cheng Ketian smiled and cupped his hands.
While smiling and exchanging greetings, Wei Zhaotong was puzzled. Why did this guy suddenly come to see him?
In the Verdant Arc Territorial Waters, the Hong Merchant Group was considered an external force. They had always been neutral and minded their own business with the other forces. Even a local tyrant like the Poison Eye Mercenary Group didn't dare to have any ideas about it. Therefore, they didn't have any business dealings with each other, but they also didn't have any enmity with each other. Basically, they were just acquaintances.
"May I know why Young Master Cheng has come to my Hong Merchant Association this time?" After some small talk, Wei Zhaotong went straight to the point.
"Actually, it's nothing much. It's just that word has spread outside that the Equal Heaven Escort Agency has been extorted by Shopkeeper Wei. That's why I'm here to pay you a visit, "Cheng Ketian answered without hiding anything.
Even Chen Zitiao, who was behind him, couldn't help but put his hand to his forehead when he heard this answer, let alone Wei Zhaotong, the person involved. Was there something wrong with this guy's brain? Since he wasn't here to pick a fight, how could he speak like that in front of the other party?
"What do you mean by that, Young Master Cheng?" As expected, Wei Zhaotong's expression darkened. He said unpredictably, "This is the Equal Heaven Escort Agency's breach of contract. I've been doing everything according to the contract. These rumors were spread by the Equal Heaven Escort Agency themselves. How could you believe them, Young Master Cheng? Could it be that you're here to stand up for the Equal Heaven Escort Agency? That can't be right. As far as I know, Young Master Cheng and Qi Wenhan have always been enemies. They've always been sworn enemies! "
The grudge between the Equal Heaven Escort Agency and the Poison Eye Mercenary Group, especially the grudge between Qi Wenhan and Cheng Ketian. Any random local on the streets of Verdant Arc City could talk about it for three days and three nights. This was a well-known fact.
"Haha, Shopkeeper Wei is right. Qi Wenhan and I are sworn enemies. Moreover, we hate each other to the bone. If he doesn't die, then I'll live!" Cheng Jutian laughed heartily.
Wei Zhaotong did not know whether to laugh or cry. If he doesn't die, then you live. Aren't you the one who has the last laugh? Everyone knows that you, Young Master Cheng, will always suffer when you meet Qi Wenhan. Is this confidence or stupidity …
"Then, Young Master Cheng, what are you here for this time?" Wei Zhaotong's expression softened a little. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Even someone like Cheng Ketian understood this principle. Naturally, he understood it as well.
"It's very simple. I want to join forces with Shopkeeper Wei to think of a way to trick the Equal Heaven Escort Agency again!" Cheng Ketian said excitedly.
Every time he had a conflict with the Equal Heaven Escort Agency, he had always suffered losses at the hands of Qi Wenhan. It was impossible to fight them head-on. However, this incident had given him some inspiration. If he wanted to deal with the Equal Heaven Escort Agency, Qi Wenhan, and that Ling Yi, there was no need for him to fight them head-on. He could totally be like Wei Zhaotong and plot behind their backs!
"Oh?" Wei Zhaotong's eyes instantly lit up. His interest was piqued. He immediately said, "Come, come, come. Young Master Cheng, please come into the inner hall. Let's discuss this properly."
As matters stood, Wei Zhaotong's desire to deal with the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency was even greater than Cheng Ketian's. Even though he had managed to evade them for the time being, the other party still had a witness in their hands. To him, this was quite a hidden danger. If this witness were to fall into the hands of the Hong Ying Group, he would be in big trouble.
It was a pity that although the Hong Merchant Association had quite a bit of influence in the Weiarc Territorial Waters, they were only doing business. This included the Guest Experts who were stationed here. Their main job was to protect the Hong Merchant Association. Even as the shopkeeper of the branch, Wei Zhaotong could not easily order them around. It was even more impossible for him to make them do things that could not see the light of day.
Moreover, Wei Zhaotong himself was too big of a target. Every move he made was watched. If he wanted to do something personally, it would be very difficult. He did not expect Cheng Ketian to actually come to him.
This Young Master Cheng had the Poison Eye Mercenary Group behind him. They were definitely the local tyrant. If he wanted to do something behind his back, they were the perfect partners!
The two of them did not have much of a relationship to begin with. But after this, they actually felt like they were like-minded and regretted not meeting each other earlier. They could not wait to enter the inner hall to discuss in detail.
From afternoon to night, they planned for a full six hours. Only then did the two of them walk out with smiles on their faces. Wei Zhaotong personally sent them off, and Cheng Ketian returned satisfied.
In the next few days, Lin Yi originally thought that after the previous incident, whether it was Wei Zhaotong's side or Cheng Ketian's side, there should be follow-up actions. However, unexpectedly, these few days were calm and peaceful. There were no signs of anything unusual at all.
Since the other party did not come looking for trouble, Lin Yi could not possibly take the initiative to find them by himself. Thus, he was happy to be idle. (To be continued) r655
